NEWS RELEASE RTD welcomes customers for MLB All-Star events Rail lines provide connections to activities; customers should plan ahead DENVER (July 8, 2021) — The Regional Transportation District (RTD) is ramping up to welcome local and national spectators to the Major League Baseball All-Star Game activities. Rail lines are an easily accessible option for reaching the downtown area and the Coors Field ballpark.

RTD ambassadors will be available at the Convention Center Station and Denver Union Station commuter rail and light rail platforms to assist customers.
